>>As one doctor put it, "Why did they come and see me at all, if they are already convinced of what they have? Just to waste their own time and money, not to mention my time?" A lot of people are anxious that they are going to lose their jobs to automation. The profession of medicine should be no different. Whatever is happening to them is happening to nearly every single individual on earth. >>I once described the job of a project manager to a doctor friend as a "thankless profession," and he immediately said, "that sounds like my job too!" The job of a project manager is probably the job with the highest ROI on earth. Where else do you get paid big money, to do meta supervisory work, forward emails and approve leaves. While not moving a finger towards doing any actual work yourself.
